Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.
Education and career are not always as intertwined or strongly connected as many people think.
Yes, for some professions, there is a strict educational requirement and certification process (medicine and law for example). But education does not always have a strict 1:1 relationship with career, job or placement.
If I recall, many people from Bungie have stated that the 3 things they care about and the priority of them are;
Ability
Personality
Education
In other words, a good portfolio and demonstrable skills/history along with a personality that would mesh well within the Bungie team is far more important and valuable than any collection of degrees or certification.
Not that education isn't important. But learning occurs everywhere and in some uncommon ways that don't always show in a degree or GPA.
